A fresh political crisis has hit the Shiv Sena UBT in Maharashtra as six rebel Members of Parliament move closer to a formal split. Allegations have surfaced that the dissident lawmakers were paid twenty-five crore rupees each and relocated to Rajasthan under police protection. The rebels have reportedly submitted a letter to the Lok Sabha speaker, claiming the party has drifted from its core ideology towards the Congress, and are seeking recognition as a separate group in parliament.
Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party has distanced itself from the rebellion, stating it has no role in the internal party dispute. The developments coincide with the sixtieth Foundation Day of the party, with rival factions holding separate celebrations. At the Nesco ground in Goregaon, supporters gathered amid speculation regarding the culmination of a secret operation, which could see the missing lawmakers make a public appearance.
The crisis highlights the ongoing power struggle within the state's political landscape as both factions vie for control and ideological legitimacy.
